heritage. The organization promotes quality jazz education, performance, and
musician support.

Festival in the Park, the Jazz Arts Initiative will offer the Jazz Arts Stagefor the second year.
This premier event will offer opportunities for local performing groups
from middle schools, high schools and colleges, as well as professional
artists, to showcase their skills. Audiences will explore their cultural
heritage and will join with performers who have discovered their passion for
music and the diversity of the jazz arts.
